LuminousZ Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I've been dating this terrific woman for about three months now.., all seems to be going well with the exception of her use of sleeping pills. We had a simple discussion about two weeks ago where I explained to her I am uncomfortable with her use of these pills - even though they are prescribed - I feel she relies on them and see no end in sight. She agreed to try to use them less.., starting out by cutting them in half to reduce the lethargic after effect that bothers me so much. I suppose they make her comfortable, but they make me feel insignificant. I spent the whole weekend with her but I felt alone during the evening / mornings while the pills were flowing through her bloodstream. Is it possible to persuade someone to stop using sleeping pills on a regular basis? Should I tell her I don't want to be around her while she is using these pills? I really feel lots of love for her and want this new relationship to work.., but I don't think its fair to me to be with a partially coherent SO. As much as I hate to say it, I think this is a deal breaker for me. Does anyone know of a way to wean someone off sleeping pills?? Link to post Share on other sites
luvtoto Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Does anyone know of a way to wean someone off sleeping pills?? If she's addicted and in denial about her problem, there is not much you can do for her. You can only save yourself. If she realizes she has a problem, then she should take get the help she needs herself...with support from you of course. Link to post Share on other sites
